 ML> Kathy used to tell stories ... I recall one about a

I don't remember that one but I do recall tales of horror about
Valentine's Day and Mother's Day (two good times to avoid all
restaurants IMO) with too many customers and not enough staff.

 JW> my first experience with goat

 ML> There are many kinds of goat cheese, from very ripe all the

I look forward to exploring them.

But then you're biased. [G]

 JW> curry was quite mild, really dumbed down; Roslind liked it but I've
 JW> never been fond of coconut milk in savory dishes

 ML> In truth the coconut taste submits to the spice paste
 ML> taste in real Thai curries

It didn't that time. Too much coconut, not enough curry spices. Not
really Thai style.

Speaking of sorta but not really Thai...

     Title: "Green Mean Sauce" Green Zebra Fusion Sauce
Categories: Sauces
  Servings: 4

  2 1/2 lb Green Zebra Tomatoes
      1 c  white wine
      2    green Thai Dragons or
    cayenne chiles
      1 TB garlic crushed
      1 c  Thai basil
      1    stalk lemon grass
      4    Magroot/Kaffir Lime leaves

Simmer for 45 minutes, stirring upon occasion. Puree and reheat.

I served it over gnocchi and then I quick fried some Chile, bread crumb
shrimp and placed them on top. Oh and a couple of large scallops
breaded in the Italian bread crumbs and Chile.

Excellent.

This sauce would be great as a dip as it is so thick and flavorful.

Use basic water bath processing.

... When someone says "expensive wine" I think "big gallon jug."
